- Trust this plugin only. Tick the Unsigned row. The list under it must show

- The view opens. The MuleSoftForge Studio AI view opens in the bottom panel. Its header shows the provider, Settings and the installed version. On the right, all Cost values show $0.00 · 0 tokens. This is correct: they start empty and fill in when you send messages.
- See the model prices. Click Show prices under Cost to see the price per 1M input and output tokens of each model. The prices are public list prices from OpenRouter. Your provider or endpoint can set different prices, so use them as a guide. Click Refresh to load them again.
- Move the view. Drag the view tab to a different place, for example next to the editor.
- Give it more space. The chat fills the space that you give it. A tall column next to the editor works well.
- Light or dark. The view follows the Studio theme. This is the dark theme.
The update site location for step 4:
https://docs.mulesoftforge.com/studio-ai/updates/Beta releases are not signed yet, so Studio asks you to trust them on each install and update. The source is on GitHub, so you can review it and build it yourself.
You can also open the view with Window > Show View > Other… > MuleSoftForge > MuleSoftForge Studio AI, or Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+I.
Next: set up a provider.
If the install fails with a certificate error on a company network, see Troubleshooting.
